Sampling GPS Signal

At switch on, Solo starts looking for a GPS
signal. You can see the level of the signal by
pressing >>> or <<< until the
following page appears:

Please note: for a quick GPS signal
acquisition place Solo in the open air so
that a wide part of the sky is visible.

First Power On

At first power on, Solo starts the
configuration wizard requiring the
following information:

• Language

• Unit of measure (Mph/Kmh)

• Type of race to be performed

(speed, regularity or performance in case
of performance test select the kind of
performance according to the selected
unit of measure)

• Type of track that the logger is to be used

on: Circuit or Point to Point

(except for performance tests)

SOLO/SOLODL POWERING ON

The precision of the system computation
(routes and lap times) depends on the
number of connected satellites.

A good precision is provided with at least 6
satellites connected with an optimum
precision provided with at least 8 satellites
connected.
A Power On, Solo checks the tracks listed in
its memory. In case it finds a track near the
current position (within 5 km) it shows the
proper track name.
Solo will use the position of the beacon and
of the split points for all computations.

In case more tracks are near your position
it shows “tracks found”.

You can see them and select one by
pushing >>> or <<<

or simply run a track lap to permit Solo to

identify which track is being run.
